Collectors, gamers and pop culture fans, clear your calendars. Community Gathering, presented by Speedy Comics, is taking over Times Square Center this weekend on Saturday, June 27 and 28, with a jam-packed line-up of trading cards, collectibles, creativity and family-friendly entertainment.
If you’re heading to this community-focused event, expect to meet fellow hobby enthusiasts, trading card game players, collectors, young entrepreneurs and families. It’s the perfect place to expand your pop culture circle and connect with like-minded fans.
There will be plenty of spaces to browse, buy, sell and trade collectibles, and it doesn’t matter if you’re a seasoned collector or completely new to the hobby; there will be plenty to explore. You can also partake in interactive gameplay sessions and check out beginner-friendly activities from community tournaments. Who knows? You may walk away with a cool prize. At the very least, you can show off your giveaway to your new friends.

One of the standout features of the event is the BIZ KIDZ Youth Participation Area. Here, young creators aged between five and 16 will have the opportunity to showcase handmade crafts, creative projects, collectibles and youth-led initiatives, giving visitors the chance to support the next generation of entrepreneurs and makers.
And of course, it wouldn’t be a pop culture gathering without a few standout costumes in the mix. And speaking of being creative, there will be plenty of craft activities and entertainment throughout the weekend.
